Harpenden 5th March 2017

[ppppenguin]

Less than a month until the first Harpenden of 2017.

As usual Brian, Jeremy, Edward and I will be conning you out of your hard earned cash raising money for the Vintage Wireless Musuem on the Bring and Buy stall. We're no longer in the foyer but just inside the main hall on the left. You can still leave stuff with us during setting up as we'll have a small table by one of the doors to the main hall.


There are 2 ways to sell stuff on the B&B.


1: Donation with 100% going to the Vintage Wireless Museum. We also like this because there's no admin for labels, lists etc.

2: Sales with 10% commission to the Museum. If you have more than a couple of items it helps us a lot if you can make a numbered list with prices. With corresponding numbered price labels stuck on the items. We then add a serial letter so that your No3 is different to another No 3. We can do labelling/listing on the day but it slows things down at busy times.

We close at 1pm but if you've sold anything you can colllect the proceeds at any time.

Please remember to collect unsold items by 1pm.

You've all been fabulously generous in the past so let's hope for another big donation to the Museum.

The snowdrops and crocuses are out and it's less than 2 weeks to go until Harpenden.

Look forward to seeing you all there.

Here's the sheet for you to list items if you have more than a couple to sell.  This helps us a lot.
Remember to put a label on each item with the corresponding item number.  We will add a distinguishing letter to each label.
I hope to see lots of you there.
all the best
Jeremy

Thanks to your generosity we raised over £400 for Museum funds on the Bring and Buy stall.

Thanks to Brian, Jeremy, Edward and Peter for helping to run the stall.

I forgot to mention the most significant thing that happened.

At the AGM Mike Barker stood down as chairman after 18 years in that role. He has done a superb job and deserves our thanks for the huge amount of work and commitment. He will continue to run the RWB meetins and auctions. Greg Hewitt moves from being treasurer to become the new chairman. I can't think of anyone better suited to the job. Let us all support him in his new role. Jeremy Day returns to being treasurer after a 3 year break.
